  • Conducting due diligence on vendor systems/solutions to ensure alignment with group IT policies and standards.
  • Providing enterprise architecture guidance and direction in key change program/project and business stakeholder meetings as needed.
  • Spearheading the continuous improvement plan for group IT enterprise architecture.

As a senior member, you may be called upon to undertake broader duties and tasks within the scope of the role.

  • Expertise in enterprise and solution architecture using industry-standard frameworks and methodologies such as TOGAF and BCS.
  • Strong technical skills in defining systems and technology solution architecture, particularly using Microsoft Azure and Salesforce technologies.

  • Familiarity with infrastructure and security architecture, IT service management frameworks (e.g., ITIL), and IT governance frameworks (e.g., COBIT).
  • Understanding of secure design and development practices and frameworks, preferably ISC2 CSSLP or CISSP certified.
